“Thank goodness, you’re safe.” Heather hugged her husband. “I was so worried about you.”
“We barely escaped so we must lay low now,” Tom advised.
“I saw it in the news. It’s everywhere.” Heather was afraid. She felt her heartbeat fast. “The boys are on their way here.”
“Why?” Tom was not in support of their coming to see him.
“To check up on their father to be sure that he’s alright,” Heather explained.
“Oh, I see.” Tom smiled. “But this is not the right time to be making suspicious movements because the boy’s face is now all over the country and people will be looking for him. we need to keep him out of sight until we leave for the mainlands.”
The luna hugged her son even tighter in fear of losing her son in the human world she thought was safer than the mainlands. Lucas would not just be furious; he would murd
Balaam entered Tom’s house with a dark, huge and tall, good-looking guy. The room was silent as everyone stared in amazement at how well built the guy was. He had the stature of a werewolf even though he obviously wasn’t one.“Hi, Balaam!” Tom greeted him.“Hi everyone.” Balaam greeted and headed towards Raul to hug him. Raul smiled at his very good friend and hugged him. “I saw the news and damn I thought that you guys were set up. How the hell did the government get to be informed so quickly about this?”Raul gazed at Tom who also gazed at him and then back at Tom.“You have come at the right time for answers,” Tom explained. “Apparently this war has been in motion since before you were born and that incident was the right excuse that the government needed to make their move.” “I can tell you more about that?” the young man added quickly.Every
Hayley was all alone in her bedroom while her sister was busy attending to matters of the state and the witch was in her quarters. They all saw the news earlier and were glad that Raul and the others were safe.Hayley thought of Raul and tried to make her thoughts of him not affect her current condition. Suddenly, there was a gush of wind that caused the windows to open and she got up from her bed in fright.“Who’s there?” she asked. For a moment she thought that it was the witch so she waited for a while to see if she would see her but she saw no one. She got out of bed and went to shut the window when a soft voice greeted her from behind.“Hello, Hayley!”She gasped and turned to find the Moon goddess standing there and staring at her. she swallowed hard and genuflected to reverence her presence.“Greeting all-wise and powerful one.”“No please; get up dear. You’re the mother of our lit
Yutti had finished the transformation process and returned to his human form. Raul and his friends were amazed at the way Betty and Paul slept all through the transformation process. The luna went in constantly to check upon them.“They’re still sleeping.” She told Raul as she came out from checking upon them.“Is this normal?” Raul asked Yutti.“Well, I haven’t done too many transformations. But the few I have done were at odd times so I wasn’t able to get a record of their behavior during the transformation.” Yuttt replied.“So what do you think is wrong with them?” Kal asked in curiosity.“Do you think that they’re dead?” Heather asked.“They are supposed to be dead because the transformation can only take place when they’re dead or unconscious,” Tom explained.“The first one I did, she did faint but I can’t remember wh
After the meeting was over, Raul picked up his phone to contact Hayley. He missed her a lot and wanted to know how she was doing and also to give her progress reports on their plans so far since they were to leave for the mainlands in two days.“Hi baby!” he lay in bed, relaxed and in a position that would allow him to fantasize about her while he spoke to her.“Hi, honey!” Hayley replied from her end.“What’re you doing?”“I’m in bed; relaxing from jogging. The baby said that he wanted me to jog a little.”“The baby told you that?” Raul sounded surprised.“Yes; the baby speaks to me all the time,” Hayley replied with a wide smile on her face.“Oh wow! Is that normal?” Raul was confused.“Oh, no honey but this baby is special.” Raul wondered what she meant by that. He had heard that babies were special but h
Raul realized how important it would be to make the woman a part of his team even though she did not have to transform, to remain in the human world to fight against the new decree. He needed her to represent their rights in the world of the originals.He admired her sense of direction and hoped that she would not be frightened if she saw an actual werewolf or change her mind towards them. “It may not be that easy because she is fighting for her people,” Heather suggested and interrupted his thoughts. “As it is now, I don’t think she has ever seen a werewolf before.”Virgil scoffed and added. “It might become a different story if she ever saw one in reality.”“I doubt that.” Raul defended.“Why? She’s a human too and she’s only raising this mob to fight for what she believes which is that the government is restricting their rights to life.” Tom reminded her. &ldquo
Raul was surprised to hear her mention those words. He had thought that she had no idea of the terms in the werewolf dictionary.“You know about that?” he asked in a soft voice.Stacy laughed softly and replied. “Is there anything that I do not know about? My husband is in the military too. But he is retired. That device that the president spoke of, he was a part of the project but since there were no reports of werewolves in our world for many centuries, the device was packed up and kept with him in a safe place to be retrieved when needed.” She narrated.Raul raised an eyebrow as he gazed at her in amazement.“The device was retrieved some days ago after the news of the little werewolf boy who was caught by a mob and the mother werewolf came to his rescue but escaped the military. They even got intel that the house where they were harbored belonged to a human. The human was supposed to be arrested but the military was not o
Stacy gazed at them with her eyes wide open in surprise.“Are you serious?” she asked.The luna nodded and smiled at her. “You seem surprised.”“You guys look like you have been amongst us longer than we know.”“True.” The luna replied. “We have been around for centuries. I have been around for more than a century.”“Wow!” Stacy exclaimed in amazement. “You guys can live that long?”The luna smiled and took her seat. Stacy exclaimed again as she took a good look at every single person in the room. She held the recorder up and then placed it on the table. She was just about to put it on before Tom cut in and asked her.“Wait!”She paused and raised her head to look up at him.“Before you turn it on, I have some questions to ask you.” Tom continued.Stacy sat up straight and asked. “Ok; what is it?&rdquo
Raul was heartbroken to hear the news he heard about Stacy. She seemed so innocent to him that he could hardly believe that she was the spy that the priest warned him about.He wanted to head inside and question her but tries to control his temper. “So where is Balaam now?” he asked.The governor replied. “He is safe.”“So I have lost almost a hundred and thirty abled fighters?” Raul wanted to be sure of what he had lost so he asked.“I’m sorry, Raul. You need to know that we will not rest until we have gotten more men to fight with you.” Tom tried to console him.Raul’s eyes did not leave the house as he imagined himself dealing personally with Stacy because he was the one who brought her to the group and everyone trusted her because of him. he felt guilty and wanted to correct the situation as quickly as he could.“I’m going inside.” He warned.“Why?
Raul could not contain his surprise at what the soldier was telling him. He really did want to grant the soldier his wish but he also wanted to go to the city to meet with the scientist. “So what are you saying now? That you won’t take me to the scientist?” Raul wanted to be clear. At this, the soldier tried to get on his feet. Raul watched him in silence. Then the soldier saluted him and recited. “You are the president we know, Raul. I am at your service. My men and I swear our allegiance to you from this moment on. All I am asking sir is that you let us serve you.” Raul sighed in satisfaction and turned to face the others who smiled back at him. He could see the sincerity and determination in his eyes then he said to him. “At ease.” The soldier managed to stand at ease with his hands behind his back. Raul said with a wide smile. “You and your brothers and family are welcome to live here with me but as free people and not a servant. You will
“I told you he was shady.” Lucas reminded Raul of his words.Raul said nothing but approached Salman and said out loud.“Hey!” he called him.Salman gazed at him in silence.“I am Raul and I am your opponent in this fight. You will not harm any of my friends today coz today is the day you die.” Raul said in confidence.Salman laughed out loud and replied. “You, kill me? I hope to see the day.”“And today will be the day,” Raul concluded with a roar as he transformed.Salman and the others were wowed because Raul seemed different. Danny had promised to combine some of his powers with Raul’s so he would win the war and defeat his enemies. So when Raul transformed, he looked like a divine being, and even Salman was shaken by the view.“What is this?” Salman asked in awe.“I am the one they call the prince in the night.” the voice sound
The president gasped in fear and the scientist could hear his gasps of fear. He laughed and continued.“Meet my son, Salman. He was my first successful werewolf creation. He is programmed to destroy and eat anything that crosses his path. His hunger is never fully quenched so be sure not to cross his path because even you will be torn to pieces.”“You will pay for this.” The president yelled.“Farewell, Mr. President. I’ll see you in hell.” The scientist cut the call.The president watched as Salman began to tear his soldiers apart because they were shooting at it. Raul and his men just stood still. Raul realized that it was not the werewolf god after all and he was careful not to stand in its way. He watched the creature tear them to pieces and some it ate. “Don’t shoot at him.” The president instructed his men.The soldiers stopped and Salman paused to see who he would eat
Not long after Lucas joined in the fight seeing that his colleagues were losing to Thomas I; the president’s helicopter landed in the middle of the field and he came down to taunt them.“Who leads this great country?” he asked after taking a long look at the werewolves in their werewolf forms. Thomas, I walked majestically to stand behind him as he spoke to protect him from any harm.The werewolves were silent for a while. They did not say anything in response to the president’s question. They were surprised to see him as some of them had never seen him before.“I ask again; who is the leader here?”There was silence for a while and then Raul came forward and spoke up in his werewolf form. “I am.”The president gazed at him and said. “Please approach me in a more palatable form. I know you guys have two forms so I’d rather you address me in your other form please.”Raul did no
Everyone turned to gaze at Lucas who stood watching them and wondering what was going on.“Why are you all staring at me like that?” Lucas asked.Everyone was dumbfounded. Lucas saw Kara lying lifeless and soaked in blood in the governor’s arms. He rushed towards him and carried her from the governor’s arms sobbing.“What happened to her?” he yelled between sobs.“S-she was hit and died from the wounds.” The governor replied between sobs as he stepped back to allow Lucas access to his sister.“What!?” Lucas did not quite understand. He did not realize that there was a war going on while he was asleep for months.“You have been in a coma for months.” The witch explained.“What?” Lucas was confused. “Comma?”“Yes, you too were hit by the war tank when the priest was still fighting against us,” Raul explained.At this
Hayley watched from the rooftop with her sister as the war went on outside the city gates on the fields between the Southern aisles and the Western aisles.Kara saw how worried her sister was. she approached her and hugged her from behind. “You seem worried. You need to rest.”Hayley sighed and replied. “It’s not the war I’m afraid of. It’s what I’ve seen just now that frightens me.”At this, Kara was interested. She stood in front of Hayley and asked. “What; you saw another vision?”“Yes. I did.” Hayley replied.“Tell me sister; what did you see?” Kara was anxious. She hoped that it would be good news that could revert her death.“I saw another creature coming to the mainlands. This one is meant to wipe everyone out including the president’s soldiers.”At this Kara was speechless.“I saw death across this field and I can
The president sat in his office watching from a large screen as the soldiers and the clones invaded the mainlands. The scientist had connected his system to the screen to enable the president a clearer view of what was going on.The scientist had inserted chips on all the clones so they could monitor and view their movement as well as pass information to them when necessary. The president was amazed by the development. He was even more amazed at the size of the mainlands. He never expected it to be this huge. He had always thought that the mainlands was a forest filled with wild animals. He was amazed to see that it was a developed little village.“This place is a wonder.” The president exclaimed. “It is good for us to make it a dumping ground for all our experiments.”The scientist gazed at him briskly but said nothing.Then the president asked. “I don’t see Thomas I. where is he?”“Oh, he’s go
The priest was expecting them as he had already listened to them through his bowl of clouds. He knew that the clones were trouble but he needed them as allies in fulfilling his quest so he devised a plan really quick to fight alongside Raul and his friends to secure the mainlands and defeat the president while he would search for means to gain access and control of the clones.He was certain that someone was controlling the clones and he was determined to find out who it was controlling them using his alliance with Raul and his friends to get information. Soon, Modi arrived and the priest asked the servant to let them in which he did.Modi stood at the entrance of the priest’s lair in silence. The priest still stood over his bowl of clouds looking inside and ignoring Modi’s presence.“I can smell you, Modi. I know why you have come. I saw and heard it all.” The priest began without gazing at him.“Good!” Modi remarked k
The scientist was watching from his system where he was monitoring the clone. He observed that it had somehow lost its signal and knew that it was dead. He turned to face the president who was anxiously gazing at him for positive answers.“We have lost him, sir.” The scientist confessed.“Hmm…” the president sighed. He went to take a seat and continued. “But I thought you said that it could not be defeated.”“Yes but it’s still vulnerable to die especially if burned as I suspect it was.” the scientist defended himself.The president was silent for a while and said nothing. Then he caressed his chin and asked. “Where is the first project anyway?”“He has been stored away safely and used to clone the others.” The scientist responded.“Bring him in. he should lead the others…” the president ordered but was cut short by the scientist.&
